RECORD OF SALE Record The record of sale, posted on AUCTIONS100 Live Auctions website, will be taken as absolute and final in all disputes. 12. RESERVE PRICE All the lots are offered subject to a reserve. A reserve is a confidential minimum price below which such a lot will not be sold. AUCTIONS100 will act to protect the reserve by bidding through the auctioneer. The auctioneer may open the bidding on any lot below the reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the Seller and may continue to bid on behalf of the Seller up to the amount of the reserve. This may be done by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders. After a lot has been auctioned, but has failed to sell because it has not reached the reserve, AUCTIONS100, at its discretion, may reveal the reserve the prospective post-sale purchasers. 13. ESTIMATE Catalogue descriptions of each lot generally include an estimated range of prices, within which AUCTIONS100 estimates the lot may sell. These estimates tend to be much lower than our approximate valuations. They should not be taken as comparable auction values, or as "prices." These estimates are made before the sale and are sometimes revised before the sale. Pre-sale estimates do not include the buyer's premium or applicable state/local taxes and other expenses. 14. INQUIRIES All inquiries regarding lots must be sent directly to the AUCTIONS100 via email and received 48 hours prior to the start of the auction. 15. COPYRIGHTS The copyright in the text of the catalogue, our websites, photographs, and illustrations of lots contained in the catalogue and websites belong to us. No one is allowed to reproduce or permit anyone else to reproduce such text, photographs, or illustrations without our prior written consent. 16. WITHDRAWAL PRIOR TO SALE AUCTIONS100 reserves the right to withdraw any property before the sale and shall have no liability whatsoever for such withdrawal. If the auctioneer decides that any opening bid is not commensurate with the article offered, he may reject the same and withdraw the article from the sale, and if, having acknowledged an opening bid, he decides that any advance thereafter is insufficient, the auctioneer may, in his sole discretion, reject the advance. 17. "AS IS" CONDITION All property is sold "as is". All sales are final. Neither AUCTIONS100, the auctioneer, nor any consignors makes any warranties or representation of any kind or nature with respect to the property, and in no event shall they be responsible for the correctness, nor deemed to have made any representation or warranty, or description, genuineness, authorship, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, or condition of the property and no statement made at the sale, or in the bill of sale, or invoice or elsewhere shall be deemed such a warranty of representation or an assumption of liability. Absolutely no sales shall be canceled due to age estimate, condition issues, or whether or not they are expressed in the condition report. 18. ITEMS DESCRIPTION As a service to prospective purchasers, AUCTIONS100 may estimate the age and describe the physical condition of certain lots included in the catalogue.

The description, age estimate, and condition reports are only an opinion of AUCTIONS100. No statement regarding age, condition, kind, value or quality of a lot shall be construed to be an expressed or implied warranty, representation or assumption of liability by AUCTIONS100. Discrepancies of description shall be decided by mutually agreed upon experts whose determination must be in writing and is at the expense of the Buyer. Items are ascribed to given artists, age, and origins only upon exercise of AUCTIONS100 best judgment or that of an outside expert. No unqualified statement as to authorship is made. AUCTIONS100 suggests that the prospective bidder seek the advice of his own expert before bidding on any particular lot. AUCTIONS100 makes no representation or warranty as to whether the purchaser acquires any copyrights, including, but not limited to, any reproduction rights in the property. AUCTIONS100, its employees, or agents, do not guarantee the genuineness, authenticity, condition, or description of any catalogued lot.
